"Hehe, alright, let's leave the morning after tomorrow. Zhou Bo stood up and then asked, "How many people do other forces usually bring?"

After thinking about it for a while, Wu Jing replied: "Brother Zhou, this is not accurate, in the past, everyone brought seventy or eighty people, and there were also one or two hundred." Because there will be no conflict in the Kanto region, it is useless to bring too many people, but it is just to support the scene. ”

"Hmm, how could there be no conflict?" Zhou Bo's heart moved, it was hard to imagine that there would be no conflict in the assembly of these bandits. Especially in the police movies I watched in the 21st century, some people will always die when the heads of those forces meet. However, Wu Jing actually said that such a gathering has never clashed, which is very puzzling.

Wu Jing said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, do you know, this county seat of Qingming County is the most prosperous boundary in Kanto, because less than twenty miles away from the county seat of Qingming County, it is the camp of Kanto, and the king of Kanto also lives." When the Kanto meeting is held, the king of Kanto will also send some personnel to inspect it, and if there is a conflict at the Kanto meeting, the king of Kanto will not let those people go. So if things don't go well, even if it's a blood feud between the two of them, there will be no more Kanto meetings. ”

If these words didn't come from Wu Jing's mouth, Zhou Bo wouldn't have believed it. What are you kidding? A gang of bandit leaders gathered under the nose of the king of Kwantung, and the king of Kwantung would send troops to maintain order. It's a ridiculous joke. Zhou Bo shook his head, such a thing is really incomprehensible, "It's just that this king of Kanto doesn't go up the mountain to suppress bandits, why would he connive at these people to assemble under his nose?"

"I don't know about this, but it seems that the king of Kanto is very conniving at the power of the cottage. There was never an army to fight. It's also because of this psychology of the King of Kanto. Everyone will choose the location of the rally in Qingming County. Wu Jing said.

It felt like I couldn't ask what I wanted from Wu Jing anymore. Zhou Bo waved his hand and motioned for everyone to follow him out.

"Brother Zhou, where are you going?" watched Zhou Bo leave, Wu Jing asked.

"I'm going back to the house to arrange some things, and I'll gather here in the day after tomorrow, and I won't come tomorrow, and the cottage will be handed over to you." Holding the back of his head with both hands, Zhou Bo said without looking back.

Wu Jing did not send Zhou Bo. just watched the thin figure fade away until it disappeared from his sight. Thinking of the Kanto meeting the day after tomorrow, Wu Jing secretly shook his head.

It was early autumn, the sky was high and the clouds were light, the west wind was coming, and there was a lot of spirit.

Zhou Bo is just an extraordinary young man in the twenty-first century, he can't be said to have a pure heart without any impurities, but he is not a person who is used to killing and fighting. Ever since he met Lang, his left and right eyelids have always jumped unconsciously. As the saying goes, it is said that the left eye jumps to wealth and the right eye jumps to disaster, but now it is beating back and forth. really made Zhou Bo not know whether this was auspicious or evil.

However, Zhou Bo can be sure of one thing, that is, it will be difficult for him to live an ordinary life in the future.

Ten thousand taels! That's all white silver. Definitely not some turner. Even if it is a huge industry in the Song Mansion, it may take two or three years to earn back this silver. If it is an ordinary person's family, it is a mistake to think about this money.

And now it is not only the battle between the forces, but also the things about the king of Kwantung that he got from Wu Jing's mouth are even more puzzling to Zhou Bo.

Chai Zongxun, the king of Kanto, hehe, Zhou Bo still has a certain understanding of Chai Zongxun. The old Zhao family, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, robbed the throne of the Chai family, and if there was no Zhao Kuangyin, Chai Zongxun would be the current emperor. Why would this Chai Zongxun tolerate these bandits? Could it be that there is an ulterior collusion between them?

Thinking of this, Zhou Bo's eyes suddenly lit up, Chai Zongxun's reputation in Kanto was quite good, at least the common people did not scold him. However, it is incomprehensible in the matter of dealing with the bandits, could it be that Chai Zongxun wants to rebel? And the bandits in the Kanto region are just a bunch of lackeys raised by Chai Zongxun.

This judgment seems reasonable, but Zhou Bo is a descendant after all, and he knows that this Chai Zongxun has never had any malicious intentions.

No, Chai Zongxun should be the king of Yunnan, Zhou Bo suddenly remembered that this Chai Zongxun was sent to Yunnan at that time, and Zhao Kuangyin thought that Chai Rong, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was a sworn brother, and properly placed Chai Zongxun and made him the king of Yunnan.

And now this Chai Zongxun is in Kanto, which is obviously inconsistent with history. The tangled things made Zhou Bo have a headache, and he pondered for a while and shook his head, "I'm still in the twenty-first century, but now I've come to ancient times inexplicably, who am I going to reason with, and besides, maybe there may be a mistake in the historical record." And now that I've come to ancient times, I've changed history in a sense, so is history still recording me in the annals of history, hehe. ”

Zhou Bo was still laughing at himself in his mind, and suddenly felt a tingling itch in his body, as if the itching came out of the cracks in the bones, and there were really several smoke snakes that were not quite formed.

This thing Zhou Bo can be said to be deeply impressed, it is precisely because of these smoke snakes that Zhou Bo traveled to ancient times.

Without waiting for Zhou Bo to react, these smoke snakes throbbed and flew around Zhou Bo again, and the surrounding air fluctuated.

The space-time fragments reappeared, different from the last blur, this time the space-time fragments appeared very clearly and vividly.

In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, there were constant wars and turmoil, and the people were struggling to make a living.

Then a military general who was exactly the same as Zhou Bo appeared on the fragment of time and space, and the picture was very clear, which suddenly made Zhou Bo stunned.

Except for the different clothes and hairstyles on his body, there is almost no difference from the current Zhou Bo, and even some vague memory pictures have appeared in Zhou Bo's mind.

"Could it be that this military general is the carrier that he is about to cross?" His soul fluctuated, Zhou Bo's eyes darkened, and he woke up again and came to an antique room.

Zhou Bo slowly fused the memories of this body, and a large number of vague, but very clear memories emerged

An hour later, Zhou Bo slowly got up.

Outside the window is the earth-shattering shouts and screams, this is Xiangyang City. The Great Song Portal is about to break the city.

After Zhou Bo fused his memory. I immediately began to think of a way to get out of this ghost place first.

Three days later in the evening. Xiangyang City, which had been held for three months, finally exhausted the last bit of will, and the scarred North City Gate fell to the ground, announcing the loss of the important town in the middle of the Yangtze River defense line in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the southern gateway of the Southern Song Dynasty was greatly opened. At this moment, only the cries of the soldiers and civilians and the cheers of the pseudo-Qi soldiers could be heard in the city, and two completely different voices were about to confirm two different results, the winner was the king and the loser died.

Those who had been deceiving themselves into believing that the impregnable Xiangyang City would not be captured, all fled to the south gate like madmen at this moment. The puppet Qi 100,000 troops besieged Xiangyang City on three sides. Only the southern gate was left to shake the hearts of the soldiers in the city, and now it has become a way for all the soldiers and civilians in the city to survive.

Zhou Bo was one of the fugitives from Xiangyang City, but he was wearing a suit of armor, which showed that he was an officer.

But at this moment, there is no difference between the army and the people, they don't want to die, so they all have to run. What's more, in the three months since the puppet Qi soldiers besieged Xiangyang City, there were no longer one or two soldiers who opened the road and fled, and even Li Hui, the Xuanfu envoy on the Jingnan Road and the guard of Xiangyang Town, had already abandoned Xiangyang three days ago and led the army to retreat to Ezhou.

Zhou Bo was alone in the crowd. Staggered forward. In front of him, there are those ordinary people who are carrying the old to help the young and crying. There were also some dignitaries who sat in horse-drawn carriages and let their subordinates open the way in front, and the entire street passing through the south gate was already congested.

For Zhou Bo, he should not have been alone, he was hereditary in the third class, with the title of Jielang, and served as the general of the left battalion of Pusheng Sanchuan in Xiangyang Mansion, although he was only a small military attache of the ninth grade, but there were more than 300 people under him. It's a pity that during the three months of defending the city, the brothers were killed and wounded, and those who were not dead and uninjured now do not know where to flee. In the morning, there were still a few pro-soldiers behind him, and after noon, even the pro-soldiers were nowhere to be seen.

In fact. After gaining the memory of possessing this general, he felt that he was too miserable, and it was okay to travel to a better era, but he had to come to the early years of the war-torn Southern Song Dynasty.

That night, he also planned to escape with Li Hui, the guard of Xiangyang, but unfortunately Li Hui didn't look down on him at all. The Xiang army was the lowest status of all the troops in the Song Dynasty, and it could even be called a conscription, that is, those who were responsible for repairing military camps, raising war horses, and carrying grain and grass.

In the three days since I crossed over to this era, I have adapted to what I should have adapted, and I have already faced what I should face, and now I just want to live.

Just followed the crowd step by step, and finally left Xiangyang City before dark.

Many of the fleeing people were uprooted and did not know where to go, so they had to follow the crowd south. For Zhou Bo, he didn't know where to go, the ancestral residence of the original owner of this body was in Xiangyang, and he hadn't left Xiangyang Mansion for so long, so now he had to follow this group of refugees wherever he went.

The sky gradually darkened, and only a thin layer of red remained on the horizon.

The dignitaries in the carriage walked in front, like the leader of this group of refugees, leading the procession forward. At this time, they had already left Xiangyang City, and everyone was a little relaxed.

But just when everyone thought they had escaped, there was a sudden shout of killing in the woods on both sides of the official road ahead, and a group of cavalry rushed out first, followed by a large number of infantry with spears and broadswords.

"It's Qi soldiers, it's Qi soldiers, run away!" came a frightened shout from the front.

"Brothers, don't kill!" a pseudo-Qi officer on a tall horse commanded at the top of his voice.

The crowd exploded and boiled, and the people scattered like frightened birds and beasts and fled for their lives. Qi soldiers rushed into the crowd like wolves, killing people when they saw them, robbing things when they saw them, and the rich people who walked in front were the first to suffer. Cries, begs for mercy, and the sound of knives stabbing into the body filled the entire official road.

Zhou Bo was glad that he walked slowly, otherwise he would have been hacked to death by the Qi soldiers in front of him in his officer line. He hurriedly followed a dozen ordinary people and hurriedly ran into the woods in the southwest direction, and the sound of horses' hooves and shouts of killing kept coming from behind him, but he didn't dare to look back.

Suddenly, Zhou Bo heard a bow sound behind him, and a feather arrow "swished" past his helmet, hitting the vest of a common man in front of him. The people who were hit by the arrows fell to the ground. After struggling for a while, he died. Fortunately, he saw a lot of corpses in the space of three days. I'm almost numb now. He didn't dare to stop, and continued to run deeper into the forest.

"There is General Song in front, come and kill!" There was a shout of the pseudo-Qi soldiers behind him.

Suddenly, several cavalry turned around and concentrated on chasing Zhou Bo's side.

Zhou Bo even wanted to cry, no wonder he didn't see a single soldier in the crowd fleeing along the way, it turned out that the soldiers had already changed their uniforms, and only he, a stunned young man, was still wearing armor. He glanced back at the Qi soldiers who were chasing, although there were only three or five of them. But all of them were cavalrymen with spears and bows and arrows on their backs, and if they were to catch up, they would be trampled to death.

He used all his strength to run forward, he is a soldier, even if the training quality is not high, but the physical strength is passable. In addition, the obstacles of the woods and trees created a lot of obstacles for the cavalry to pursue, and there was still a chance to escape.

The pursuers fired a flurry of arrows, but they were all blocked by the trees.

Zhou Bo ran and ran, and suddenly saw a river appear in front of the woods. This river is a tributary of the water, the river is seven or eight feet wide, once you cross this river, you will naturally be considered to have escaped. Some of the civilians running ahead of him had already swam across the river.

But then he realized a problem. He was wearing a suit of armor and weighed more than ten pounds, and if he jumped into the river and couldn't get up, wouldn't it be suicide? He had to stop to untie his armor first, but the officer's armor was usually put on with the cooperation of the guards, and it was not easy to take it off.

When he was panicking, a cold spear was already around his neck.

"Well, you thief still want to escape, come on!" a Qi cavalryman smiled coldly, raised the spear in his hand and was about to stab him.

Zhou Bo secretly complained, he hurriedly pretended to have weak legs and fell to the ground, just letting this thorn miss.

At this time, the other four Qi cavalry had already rushed over, and instead of being annoyed, they all laughed.

"Look at this thief, hmph, no wonder the Song army will be defeated, it's just that there are too many shitholes like this!haha!" said the cavalryman who didn't stab before.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and take the head to ask the commander for credit, and by the way, we can go get some oil and water!" said another cavalryman urgingly.

"Okay, watch me take his dog's life!" The previous cavalry raised his spear again and stabbed at Zhou Bo.

Although Zhou Bo panicked in his heart, he cursed God thousands of times: Damn, God let me cross, but I can't even live for three days, am I the most unlucky time-traveler in this world?

Seeing that his life was about to end, he was both unwilling and anxious. It's just that at the critical moment, the brain turned faster, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, and he hurriedly shouted: "Slow, slow! Let me say something!"

The cavalryman who raised his spear hesitated for a moment, and then asked sharply, "Well, what do the thieves have to say?

Zhou Bo made himself appear calmer, and said: "I am the deputy envoy of the Chinese army of Lord Li Hui in Xiangyang, I know the important military situation of the Song army, if you send me to you and other commanders, there will be a heavy reward!"

Of course, this is a lie that he came up with casually, he is not a deputy envoy of the Chinese army, and even if it is, with the current situation, the Song army does not have any important military information worth mentioning.

A cavalryman pondered for a moment and asked in a cold voice: "Hugh wants to deceive me and wait, Li Hui has already run away three days ago, how can you stay here as the deputy envoy of the Chinese army?"

Zhou Bo pretended to be cold and said: "The reason why I stay in Xiangyang naturally has a purpose, as long as you send me to your boss, if my information is not important, why kill me again?"

The five pseudo-Qi cavalry glanced at each other, now that the Song Dynasty is not as good as a day, there are countless people who have surrendered in the Song army, and it is not surprising that this coward in front of him wants to change his military situation for a way of life. After thinking for a while, anyway, if the information is not accurate, it is not too late to kill, of course, if the intelligence is important, then the main general's reward is naturally not a problem.

Immediately, a leading cavalryman ordered: "Tie this up first, and hand it over to the battalion commander to decide." ”

The two cavalrymen turned over and jumped off their horses, found ropes and walked towards Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo secretly sighed, and said with a smile: "Two big brothers, let's disarm first." ”

A cavalryman was happy and sneered: "Good boy, you know each other, brother, I'll tie you up later." ”

Zhou Bo thanked him again and again, reached out to untie his saber, and presented the knife with both hands.

The cavalry was just about to step forward to receive the knife, but at this moment, Zhou Bo took advantage of the other party's defenselessness, suddenly pulled out the knife, and smashed the scabbard at another cavalryman who had already dismounted, and then raised the knife and slashed at the cavalry in front of him.

The cavalryman was still complacent, and when the sword flashed, he was caught off guard at all, and his neck was cut off on the spot.

Zhou Bo didn't dare to slow down, and rushed straight towards the cavalry who was hit by the scabbard and fell to the ground, and stabbed the other party in the stomach, and blood splattered. (To be continued.) )
